We don’t have much personal experience with DOF hardware, but this Arduino library which reads and compensates for three-axis magnetometer and accelerometer data looks very impressive. It should work ...

Instructables user benhur.goncalves has published a new project that provides details on how to create your very own DIY Arduino watch that is equipped with a number of useful features that include ...

Last fall, I grabbed a robot arm from Robot Geeks when they were on sale at Thanksgiving. The arm uses servos to rotate the base and move the joints and gripper. These work well enough but I found one ...

Abstract—(MEMS) Microelectromechanical systemsin consumer electronics are growing faster each year, with increasing demands from the mobile market, which is dominating the growth for this emerging ...

How do piezoelectric accelerometers — vibration sensors — work? The force caused by vibration or a change in motion (acceleration) causes the sensor's mass to “squeeze” contained piezoelectric ...
